What is the function of the "Pilates reformer"?

The Pilates reformer is specifically designed to enhance the practice of Pilates exercises by incorporating added resistance through springs and pulleys. This unique setup allows practitioners to perform a wide range of movements that target various muscle groups while promoting core stability and alignment. The adjustable resistance can adapt to an individual's strength and skill level, making it a versatile tool for rehabilitation, strength training, and overall fitness.

The reformer's design encourages controlled motion, allowing users to engage in exercises that improve flexibility, strength, and coordination. This adaptability is one of the key features that distinguishes the reformer from other types of exercise equipment, making it pivotal in a Pilates practice.
